<DIV>Hello GATE users,<BR><BR>I installed Gate_v3.0.0 together with
Geant4.8.1.p01 successfully a few days ago on SUSE Linux 10.1 OS. I am new to
Gate and first tested the installation by running a few test macros.<BR><BR>As
soon as ring repeater commands are implemented, the system does not function as
expected: the rotation is performed along the center axis of the object
resulting in multiple rotated copies at the same location after the following
two commands: <BR><BR># R E P E A T R S E C T O R<BR>/gate/box1/repeaters/insert
ring<BR>/gate/box1/ring/setRepeatNumber 30<BR><BR>I have included an example
macro from the Gate Users Guide below.<BR><BR>I regularly get the following
output: <BR>==============================<WBR>==========<BR>world_L is
registered to the default region.<BR> Volume of the same name and copy
number ("world_P", copy 0) still exists and is being used.<BR> Be warned
that this does not necessarily guarantee it's the same <BR> volume you
originally specified in
/vis/scene/add/.<BR>==============================<WBR>==========<BR><BR>Is it
possible that the above commands are not valid anymore, as was the case for
the<BR>/vis/viewer/viewpointThetaPhi command which had to be adjusted to
/vis/viewer/set/viewpointThetaP<WBR>hi ? <BR><BR>I also made a second install of
Gate_v3.0.0 linked to Geant4.8.0.p01 libraries, but this did not resolve the
issue. Does this sound familiar to anyone?<BR><BR>Regards,<BR><FONT face=Arial
